Hyundai Starex what to put in the automatic transmission. Kia repair at the AutoMig service center. What needs to be done to replace
* The price of all work does not include the cost of oil!
Our showroom has installed a new set of equipment for a COMPLETE oil change in the gearbox.
Using a washing installation oil system automatic transmission gears and for changing ATF fluid, all oil changes in your car are carried out cleanly and in the shortest possible time.
In addition, with the standard oil change scheme, the inside of the gearbox remains up to 70% waste liquid!
This leads to disruption of oil flow, clogging of valves and accumulation of deposits, which, in turn, leads to accelerated wear of automatic transmission parts and, ultimately, to breakdown and subsequent expensive repairs.
Now, with the help of the SL45M installation, this problem will not stand in your way.
Regularly changing working fluids is the key to long-term and trouble-free operation of any vehicle. Changing the oil in an automatic transmission Hyundai Starex H1 is one of the specializations of our company. Let's talk about some of the nuances regarding replacement frequency and inspection rules.
It is known that it is recommended to check the oil frequently - approximately every 5-10 thousand kilometers, which is articulated in the operating manual with advice from the manufacturer. According to existing standards, complete replacement working fluid should be carried out at least every forty thousand kilometers and once every two years. Please note that these standards cannot be extended to cars that drive on dusty roads or frequent traffic jams: in such cases, replacement is required every 20,000 kilometers. It is advisable to change the automatic transmission oil not partially, but completely, through a flushing device, thereby increasing the service life of the automatic transmission.

It is better to check the oil at a service center, but you can do it yourself. In this case, ensure that operating temperature reached approximately seventy-five degrees (you can drive a car a little), after which set vehicle on the site. Then move the selector to all possible positions and, remaining on each of them for a couple of seconds, create a workload for subsequent testing. The final position is neutral gear.
You can estimate the amount of oil using a specialized dipstick. Be sure to use a clean tool, washing it after each lowering into the pipe. You need to add oil if the level is below the range, which is usually called “Hot”. Please note that low level working fluid may cause clutch failure. Other “symptoms” that indicate the need for replacement include: a strange and unpleasant burning smell, uncharacteristic color, significant change degree of viscosity.
Our technical center accepts Hyundai Grand Starex automatic transmissions from 2000-2016 for repair:

It is worth checking the oil in the Hyundai H-1 (Starex) automatic transmission every 5-10 thousand km. This preventive measure is recommended by the manufacturer in the vehicle's operating manual.
Mandatory replacement of the working fluid must be carried out at least every 40 thousand km or 24 months. This period is indicated for measured use. It does not apply to using the vehicle on dusty road surfaces or in frequent traffic jams. In this case, it is worth completely changing the oil to a new one after 20 thousand km. After all, the frequency of changing ATF fluid depends not only on the mileage, but also on the nature of the ride.
How to properly check the oil in a Hyundai H-1 automatic transmission?
Before starting the test, you should ensure that the working fluid reaches a temperature of 70-80 degrees Celsius. To do this, just drive the car a little, and then park it on the site and do not forget to apply the parking brake.
The next action is to move the selector to all possible positions. Staying in each of them for 2-3 seconds can create a workload sufficient for subsequent verification. The last position should be neutral gear.
The appropriate dipstick will allow you to estimate the amount of working fluid. Having taken it out, you need to clean it and then lower it back into the pipe. The next time you retrieve it, the exact result will be shown.
It is worth adding oil to the Hyundai Starex (H-1) automatic transmission only if the level is below the range indicated by the word “Hot”. Reduced level transmission fluid is the main cause of clutch failure. At low pressure, the friction linings do not press well against the steel discs and against each other. As a result, they become very hot and break down, contaminating the oil.
In addition to quantity, quality should also be checked. A burnt smell, unusual color or change in the viscosity of the working fluid are all signals to replace it. In a working gearbox with a mileage of no more than 200 thousand, the fluid should be dark red in color without a burning smell, but if the fluid turns brown or black, it is better not to put it off and completely replace it as quickly as possible.
How to change the oil in a Hyundai Starex automatic transmission?
If the next check shows the need to replace the working fluid, you should familiarize yourself with the detailed algorithm and manufacturer’s recommendations before starting work. You will find these instructions below:
Unfortunately, the instructions from the manual do not say anything about the fact that it is necessary not only to remove the pan in order to clean the magnets from chips and drain more old oil, but also to clean or replace the mesh filter that traps large particles. Therefore, we suggest reading a more complete description partial replacement ATF in an automatic transmission on a first generation Starex:
- Unscrew the bolt in the pan with a key “17”;
- Unscrew all the fastening bolts of the pallet around the perimeter (the head is “10” and for several bolts you will need a cardan);
- Unscrew and wash or change the filter;
- In order to drain more fluid, it is recommended to loosen the valve body bolts;
- We clean the magnets from the pods and wash the tray;
- We screw and install everything in place;
- When screwing the box pan and screwing in the drain hole bolt, it is advisable to change the gaskets.
- Oil is poured either through the dipstick or through the technological filler hole.
In short, this procedure will look something like what is shown on the slides:
And in the video you can see and hear several important points:

How to change automatic transmission oil on a Hyundai Grand Starex (without dipstick)
It should also be noted that in the service manual, the filling volumes are indicated for a complete oil change, for a partial one, or for one carried out in violation of precise technology, the amount of how much you need to pour into the Hyundai Starex automatic transmission will be different, because it directly depends on the replacement method, it can be like 7, 10 or 11 l. and all 12 liters.
Differences in replacing automatic transmission fluid for Hyundai Starex before 2007 and Hyundai Grand Starex from 2009
Let's not go into details, but get straight to the point. On Starex cars of two generations, there are several differences regarding the method of changing the oil in the automatic transmission, its volume and the actual specification of the fluid being poured into the box. The first thing worth noting is the transmission fluid; the second generation H-1 does not require ATF SP-II (the same is poured into transfer case), and ATF MATIC-J RED-1 (original code. 0450000140). The second feature is the displacement that will be needed for replacement. As noted earlier, it will largely depend on the method of draining and replacing, but in general, the automatic transmission of a Hyundai H-1 car will require more of it, at least 10 liters (in a Hyundai H1 with a 2.4 G4KC and G4KE engine - 8.3 liters, for 2.5 l D4CB - 10 l, and 4D56 - 8.3 l). The third difference is the filling method; on modern boxes, the liquid is not poured through the dipstick, but through a special filler hole (on the right side of the automatic transmission in the front). And finally, the fourth difference is the replacement frequency; it has been extended and is at least 100 thousand km.
Among the tools, in addition to those needed to unscrew the pan and filter, you will also need: an “8” hexagon (unscrew filler plug), carob 24 (level plug), oil filler syringe. Instead of the expensive original semi-synthetic Hyundai oils ATF Matic-j is poured with synthetic Ravenol ATF Red-1 (4014835719019 - 1 liter, and 4014835719095 - 4 liter canister).
When switching from one type of oil to another, for example from factory ApolloOil or Matic-j to Ravenol, a complete oil change must be performed.
Self-replacement transmission fluid of the automatic transmission of the Grand Strarex 2.5 l D4CB general outline looks like this:
- Warm up the engine and gearbox;
- Drain from the pan (about 4 liters will drain);
- We remove the hose from supplying cooled oil to the box (from the two pipes going from the automatic transmission to the cooling radiator, together with the connections with the hoses, we throw off the one that comes from the top of the radiator) and drain about 3 more. The procedure is performed with the engine running with the selector switch in all modes;
- Fill in as much oil as you can drain;
- On a warm engine, after the gearbox selector has been clicked again in all modes, we make a control measurement of the level (setting it to parking mode). On cars with a dipstick, in the usual way, and on those cars where there is no dipstick, we look for the control hole (on the left along the way on the automatic transmission).
